Mail command
Hi Everyone,
I’m using the uuencode command with the mail command to send out emails through a UNIX script. The problems is that i have a number of gif files that i need to attach to a single email but the number and name of the gif files is not static. Example today the folder home/Desktop may contain
1.gif
2.gif
3.gif
but tomorrow it may contain
3.gif
sfsdf.gif
vbgcvb.gif
So that only thing that is constant is that all the files have a gif extension. Im trying to use a single line command that will enable me to send all the gif files in the current folder:
uuencode home/Desktop/*.gif "many gif files" | mailx -s "GIf files"
me@yahoo.com
does anyone know how to do this? Unfortunately zipping the files before adding them as an attachment is not possible.
Thanks

NAME
reporter-mailx - Sends contents of a problem directory via email.
SYNOPSIS
reporter-mailx [-v] -d DIR [-c CONFFILE]

The options are:
Subject
The subject of the email message.
EmailFrom

EmailTo
The recipient of the email message.
SendBinaryData
Use yes/true/on/1 to attach all binary files from the problem directory to the email. This can cause the emails to be very large.

in /etc/libreport/events.d/mailx_event.conf:

to run the tool on the post-create event:
